Master data upload into SAP system

Hello,
I want to know if there is any standard method to upload material master, customer master, vendor master and finance master data into SAP system.
I am not referring to LSMW's, BDC's and using BAPI's. I am aware of standard programs like RMDATIND for material master upload, RFBIDE00 for customer master upload and RFBIKR00 for vendor master upload. But these are using direct input method and SAP recommends this only for testing purpose. I am not sure if this could be really used in actual live scenarios.
From some other posts in the forum, I came to know about some transactions like BDLR, SXDB and BMVO. Can some one tell me how to use these T.Codes?
If some one has any detailed documentation on these T.codes or in general standard master data upload techniques please send it to [email protected]
Thanks in advance,
CMV

Hi,
Define the following attributes, using the F4 input help and F1 field help:
Report
Name of a registered program for this program type
Variant
You can only specify a variant with programs that are started directly.
With direct input, data from the data transfer file undergoes the same checks as with the online transaction and is then transferred directly into the SAP System. The database is updated directly with the transferred data.
For the documentation of other transactions please refer the correponding program documentation..which is more helpful,

DATA UPLOADING IN SAP SYSTEM

What is the meaning of data uploading in SAP system?Which TCode is used and how it is done?

Data Uploading : This is uploadig the master datas like material master,BOM,Routing etc from a legacy system or new created in uploadale format.
Then using the uploading tools like SCAT,LSMW,BDC ETC the datas would be uploaded.
When you first set up SAP landscape the system will not have any datas and configuration it will be a plain box.
So configuration has to be done by the consultants and later all the master datas,static and dyanamic datas etc has to be uploaded to start working on SAP

Master data synchronization between SAP systems

Dear all,
I have 2 SAP systems and I'm required to synchronize some kinds of HR master data between these 2 systems, how can i achieve that without any ABAP developments?
Does anyone give me any suggestions or others?
Best regards,
Bean

Hi Bean,
You can achieve this using IDoc and PI using following scenario.
1) Populate IDoc in 1st SAP system and pass it to the second system as direct IDoc to IDoc transfer.
Ex: Basic Idoc Type: HRMD_A07
2) If direct communication between two XI system is not allowed then you can use PI as middle ware to transfer data.
But for IDoc you need to create partner profile and ports etc.
Hi,
Thanks so much for your kind help.
How to make the transferring automatically whenever the specified kind of master data is changed.
Best regards,
Bean

Hello,
Whatz impossible ??
Yes you can export the data from excel to SAP using VBA, but you need to create fome RFC in SAP as well that will handle the data you will send.
1. Create a RFC function in R/3 that will read a file from specific location and perform the respective transaction.
2. Create your excel file with respective file format and call the RFC function in SAP passing the parameters as file name and other required details.
3. SAP coding for RFC will be a single time activity and then onwads you can just create excel file for upload and use VBA code to initiate the RFC call.
Hope this make some sence. Tell me if you have more queries.

Vishal

How to batch upload some data into SAP system?

Hi All:
I'm a SAP key user in our company, I want to know how to batch upload master data into SAP system? What t-code we can use for batch input?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I think at least there are four methods for batch input which you can use in SAP system:
Standard mass change t-code: for example, MM17 for mass change of material master data, you can find the mass change t-code under the relevant function module;
T-code SCAT, you can use to record and generate the simple batch input template, it's easy to use for key user;
T-code LSMW, it's another transaction to generate batch input template, it's often used at the beginning of SAP rollout;
ABAP program, of course, ABAP is a universal tool for everything, you can use ABAP to generate a batch input program to upload data into SAP system as well.
So you had better contact your SAP support department, help you to upload data!
Good luck

How can we upload the Time data into SAP system

Dear all,
ingeneral which method we can use to read the Time data and how can we upload that data into SAP system. Please any one can answer this asap.

In the recent project that I have done.. the time data is uploaded from the external time recording machine.. in the form a file...
The other way is through CATS... which in turn will populate the time entries as per hte work schedules... and will explicitly have to populate the deviations to the work scheudle by going through transactions..
Please reward the points if it is helpful...

Uploading data from non sap system to sap system

hi to all experts,
my requirement is to upload data into the sap system from non sap system . the data is in a flat file ,but the problem is that in the flat file all the field lengths and fields are not in order or same as sap system. How to upload the data into sap system ....

hi,
the data is in a flat file,but the problem is that in the flat file all the field lengths and fields are not in order or same as sap system.
If the data is in excel sheet use this FM.
CALL FUNCTION 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'
    EXPORTING
      FILENAME                      = P_FILE
      I_BEGIN_COL                   = 1
      I_BEGIN_ROW                   = 1
      I_END_COL                     = 17
      I_END_ROW                     = 3000
    TABLES
      INTERN                        = itab
EXCEPTIONS
INCONSISTENT_PARAMETERS       = 1
UPLOAD_OLE                    = 2
OTHERS                        = 3
It will read the data from excel sheet column wise and then store it in ITAB. you can change the order after reading the file.
In case of Text file use FM GUI_UPLOAD.
You can change the order of the fileds after reading it from file, but the length and all you have to make compatible to SAP standard fields.

Data load into SAP ECC from Non SAP system

Hi Experts,
I am very new to BODS and I have want to load historical data from non SAP source system into SAP R/3 tables like VBAK,VBAP using BODS, Can you please provide steps/documents or guidelines on how to achieve this.
Regards,
Monil

Hi
In order to load into SAP you have the following options
1. Use IDocs. There are several standard IDocs in ECC for specific objects (MATMAS for materials, DEBMAS for customers, etc., ) You can generate and send IDocs as messages to the SAP Target using BODS.
2. Use LSMW programs to load into SAP Target. These programs will require input files generated in specific layouts generated using BODS.
3. Direct Input - The direct input method is to write ABAP programs targetting on specific tables. This approach is very complex and hence a lot of thought process needs to be applied.
The OSS Notes supplied in previous messages are all excellent guidance to steer you in the right direction on the choice of load, etc.,
However, the data load into SAP needs to be object specific. So targetting merely the sales tables will not help as the sales document data held in VBAK and VBAP tables you mentioned are related to Articles. These tables will hold sales document data for already created articles. So if you want to specifically target these tables, then you may need to prepare an LSMW program for the purpose.
To answer your question on whether it is possible to load objects like Materials, customers, vendors etc using BODS, it is yes you can.
Below is a standard list of IDocs that you can use for this purpose to load into SAP ECC system from a non SAP system.
Customer Master - DEBMAS
Article Master - ARTMAS
Material Master - MATMAS
Vendor Master - CREMAS
Purchase Info Records (PIR) - INFREC
The list is endless.........
In order to achieve this, you will need to get the functional design consultants to provide ETL mapping for the legacy data to IDoc target schema and fields (better to ahve sa tech table names and fields too). You should then prepare the data after putting it through the standard check table validations for each object along with any business specific conversion rules and validations applied. Having prepared this data, you can either generate flat file output for load into SAP using LSMW programs or generate IDoc messages to the target SAPsystem.
If you are going to post IDocs directly into SAP target using BODS, you will need to create a partner profile for BODS to send IDocs and define the IDocs you need as inbound IDocs. There are few more setings like RFC connectivity, authorizations etc, in order for BODS to successfully send IDocs into the SAP Target.
Do let me know if you need more info on any specific queries or issues you may encounter.
kind regards

Hi,
you can try using the method cl_gui_frontend_services=>file_open_dialog, this will open a popup allowing
you to browse and selected the desired files from your system.
Use this method along with the function module GUI_UPLOAD to upload all the desired files and their contents in SAP.
Hope this was useful.
Thanks and regards,

Mass Data upload in SAP from 3rd party system

Hi Experts.
Can anyone help me how to do mass data upload in SAP. Actually, when any new joining is done, a form is being filled by employee(joining form), and that data is finally updated in SAP manually using various infotypes. Now, i m planning to make that form available in webpage. The employee will go to the webpage, fill the data , also the HR will fill the required fields, and once the form is complete, the data will get updated in SAP, in resp. infotypes. Like personal details in infotye 2, address in infotype 6, bank details in 9 and so on, in a single shot. Is there any BAPI or something like that, using which this can be achieved.
Thnx
S Kumar

You can try BAPI_BANK_CREATE for IT0009, BAPI_ADDRESSEMP_CREATE for IT0006 and BAPI_PERSDATA_CREATE for IT0002. Otherwise, you can also use FM HR_MAINTAIN_MASTERDATA to create any infotype.
Have a look also at the Life and Work Events functionality in SAP Portal (http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/f6/263359f8c14ef98384ae7a2becd156/frameset.htm)

Master data upload via LSMW using IDoc method

Dear all,
I know this has been a topic of many discussions but I would like to ask you is to share your thoughts and possibly experience with the following scenario:
Interface between non-SAP system and SAP system has to be built whereby master data gets created in the non-SAP system and has to be uploaded into SAP. This is a process that needs to be performed on a constant basis and hence my question: is there a way that the MD upload takes place in the background via LSMW with IDoc? Or any other way, for instance, with a flat file, etc.?
Thank you very much for your input!
Regards,
Miro

Miro - It depends upon many factors
1. Number of source systems
2. Volumn of recorsds ( Data to be loaded)
3. Transformation needed or not needed from S to D ( source to destination), We may consider it as
business rules/mapping
Based on above you may segrigate the objects related to data, eventually you can shoose approach of loading in SAP,
As if straigt forward load for some 20k-30K records ( Just a file load on regular basis), one to one mapping then go for LSMW, if some complex transformation logic needed then go SAP data services implementation. best part here is if you multiple sources that can be handeled here.
Accordingly you can proceed ...
Hope it helps.
Best !
